    Study Notes

    Developmental Barriers

    Language Barriers

    • Difficulty understanding or using verbal or nonverbal language
    • May be due to:
      • Hearing or speech impairments
      • Neurological disorders (e.g. aphasia)
      • Cultural or linguistic differences
      • Developmental delays (e.g. autism)

    Impacts:

    • Difficulty communicating needs and wants
    • Social and emotional difficulties
    • Delays in academic and cognitive development

    Cognitive Delays

    • Delays in processing, understanding, and using information
    • May be due to:
      • Genetic conditions (e.g. Down syndrome)
      • Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. ADHD)
      • Brain injury or infection
      • Environmental factors (e.g. malnutrition)

    Impacts:

    • Delays in academic achievement
    • Difficulty with problem-solving and critical thinking
    • Increased risk of learning disabilities

    Emotional Difficulties

    • Difficulty regulating emotions and behaviors
    • May be due to:
      • Genetic predisposition
      • Environmental factors (e.g. trauma, neglect)
      • Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. anxiety disorder)

    Impacts:

    • Difficulty forming and maintaining relationships
    • Increased risk of mental health disorders
    • Impaired social and emotional development

    Sensory Impairments

    • Difficulty perceiving or processing sensory information
    • May be due to:
      • Hearing or vision impairments
      • Neurological disorders (e.g. autism)
      • Environmental factors (e.g. exposure to toxins)

    Impacts:

    • Difficulty with communication and social interaction
    • Delays in cognitive and motor development
    • Increased risk of anxiety and stress

    Developmental Barriers

    Language Barriers

    • Difficulty understanding or using verbal/nonverbal language due to hearing/speech impairments, neurological disorders, cultural/linguistic differences, or developmental delays.
    • Impact on communication: struggles to express needs and wants, leading to social and emotional difficulties.
    • Impact on development: delays in academic and cognitive development.

    Cognitive Delays

    • Delays in processing, understanding, and using information due to genetic conditions, neurodevelopmental disorders, brain injury/infection, or environmental factors.
    • Impact on learning: delays in academic achievement, difficulty with problem-solving and critical thinking, and increased risk of learning disabilities.

    Emotional Difficulties

    • Difficulty regulating emotions and behaviors due to genetic predisposition, environmental factors, or neurodevelopmental disorders.
    • Impact on relationships: struggles to form and maintain relationships, increased risk of mental health disorders, and impaired social and emotional development.

    Sensory Impairments

    • Difficulty perceiving or processing sensory information due to hearing/vision impairments, neurological disorders, or environmental factors.
    • Impact on development: struggles with communication and social interaction, delays in cognitive and motor development, and increased risk of anxiety and stress.
